Why it is renowned

Nicaliso 70% won gold at the European round of the International Chocolate Awards in 2018 and stands on the list of gold winners Friis-Holm keeps for its bars.1 Mikkel Friis-Holm counts it among his own favourite chocolates.2

The story

Friis-Holm makes the bar from cocoa beans, sugar and cocoa butter, with at least 70% cocoa solids.2 The maker describes it as balanced and sweet, with a note of green coffee and a long, intense, vinous aftertaste that develops after a sweet start.2
